The Commissioner of Agriculture.

We are indebted to Colonel Randolph
Harrison, the Commissioner of Agriculture,
for the ninth annual report of that depart
ment, which includes that Of the State
Chemist, Professor W. J. Gascoyne, con-
tinuing the result of the analyses made by
him of the fertilizers sold in Virginia for
the years 1885, 1886 and 1887.
This document, like all which have com Q
from the department since Colonel Harri-
son has presided over it, abounds in valu-
able and interesting information. Not a
few of those who have been accustomed to
commune with him in relation to the great
interests of the State confided to his care,
but will deeply regret to realize that this is
the last communication of the kind they
will receive from his hands. He is thor
ough farmer whose mind is well stored by
close reading, much study, and long ex.
perience in the practical details of that
pursuit, and through his instrumentality
aided by the chemist of that dep artment,
there is no estimating the saving which
has been secured to farmers and planters in
the protection which has been afforded in
commercial fertilizers. The standard Of
value has been elevated, whilst the price
has diminished.
So long accustomed to participate in the
relations which have existed between Col
onel Harrison and all who have held them
selves his cs-laborers in restoring Virginia
agriculture to its former rank, it is with
profound regret that we realize his official
relation ended, for we know that the Old
State has no son more devoted to her resto
ration, or that will more earnestly strive tc
conduct her in the paths that lead to pros
perity.

THE PRoTEcT1oNrsTs say high tariff il

THE PROTECTIoNrsTs say high tariff in
creases wages. That it does not is proved
by the patent facts that wages are higher in
free trade England than in any of the tariff
countries of Europe, and that the highest
wages in this country are paid in the un-
protected trades, such as bricklaying, plas-
tering carpentering blacksmithing, paint
ing. printing and others, while the lowest
are paid in the most protected Industries
the factories and mines. But even were it
otherwise, and if wages in all mechanical
labor were increased by high tariff. 20
body pretends that it increases those of farm
laborers, and yet in numbers the latter ex-
coed the former by many millions, and the
basic principle of this country is the good OF
the many in preference to that of the few.

higher now in Chicago than it is in Staun-
ton. This singular realization with corn
has come to pass out there-it is now sci.
ling in fields, from which the surplus could
only be utilized q few years ago, as fuel,
for as much as is now paid for it in Staun-
ton. Another discouraging prospect fol
the next year in maintaining the usual sur
plos of spring wheat and corn results from
the condition of the soil preventing fall
ploughing, and the certainty of failure in
preparing sufficient acreage in the spring tc
make up the deficiency. Many sections Of
the Northwest are importing potatoes from
other States and Canada, which shows that
the unpropitious seasons have diminished
some of their supplies to the degree that
causes them to buy from home for the first

Germany has determined to increase her
tariff on agricultural products. She i'm
ports a large quantity of such products
from this country, but as America imposes
high tariff on all German products, she
will retaliate. As the price of the agricul-
tural products of America is set not by
American, but by foreign markets, the eff
feet of this retaliation upon American farm
ers can be seen at glance. And yet the
Legislature of Virginia, an Agricultural
State, has just adopted a resolution favor
ing the repeal of the tax on oleomargarine
aud whiskey, which would necessitate the
maintenance of the high tariff.-Aler. Ga

far the ablest document of the kind that

noticing Cooper's Coupon Circular, an ex-
tract from which we published last week,
the Salem Times Register says
"This appeal displays desperation on its
face, and it is very certain that it will find
few dupes in this section. Law suits are
costly things, and a man can hardly expect
to succeed in suit with the State about
the payment of his taxes in coupons, Low
that such proceedings are removed from
Judge Bonds jurisdiction. Mr. Cooper's
mission to Virginia has been to involve the
State and taxpayers in trouble and annoy

this hereafter. The coupons and Mr.
Cooper do not longer furnish an ISSUE.
